Equivalent word endings Norwegian-German

I've been collecting examples of equivalent word endings I've noticed between Norwegian and German, which I've tried to organize here. Memorizing these endings isn't useful, since there are also many exceptions (ex. barndom/Kindheit), but with time I've come to intuitively know a lot of them and their function, which helps me a lot when I'm reading Norwegian.
